5 Unforgettable Carrot Juice Benefits
Without further ado, read on to learn all the amazing benefits of carrot juice for your skin, health, and overall life.
Cancer Preventative
Though it may seem too good to be true, all the scientific studies back it: in healthy doses, carrot juice can serve as a cancer preventative.
One popular study backs the idea that carotenoids present in carrots–and carrot juice– can help strengthen the body against the risks of breast cancer: oxidative stress. This issue, which forms due to the dominance of free radicals attacking antioxidants, has been closely linked with higher cancer rates, particularly in those with a family history. By lowering this oxidative stress, carrot juice reduce the associated risks, guarding against one of the leading cause of breast cancer.
Heart Health
All fruits and veggies have positive benefits for heart health, but few are quite as effective as carrot juice.
Loaded with antioxidants, this amazing juice contains rich antioxidants, helping it cut through the lipids that most commonly lead to heart attacks. Its foundation of vitamins and minerals also helps reduce plaque that can build up in the arteries and impede circulation.
By taking the time to incorporate carrot juice into your daily diet, you do more than just stave off hunger and thirst. You take an important step towards strengthening your immune system and protecting your long-term health.
Gorgeous Skin
In addition to being rich in antioxidants and beta-carotene, carrot juice is also filled with potassium. Studies have proven that this nutritious juice can slow the growth or decay of cells, thereby helping you maintain that youthful glow for even longer.
What’s more, this juice has been proven capable of reducing the swelling and redness of fresh scars and rashes, serving as a strong anti-inflammatory. By helping in natural collagen production, carrot juice can stave off bothersome fine lines and wrinkles.
Fat Loss
Unlike other juices, which tend to come packed with sugar, carrot juice is low in both fat and sugar. With just 94 calories per cup, this juice contains less than a gram of fat. With far more natural fiber than most juices, it can aid digestion while contributing to a healthy, balanced diet.
Savory and rich, this juice makes the perfect, nutritious addition to your afternoon, helping provide you with the energy you need to get through the day without the unnecessary sugar crash.
Menstrual Cramps
Last– but certainly not least– carrot juice has been proven to help with the pain associated with menstrual cramps.
Carrot juice can help prevent many minor circulation issues that can increase menstrual pain by aiding in regular blood flow. Additionally, the beta-carotene present in carrots can also reduce inflammation, meaning that no matter what time of the month a person enjoys this treat, they are likely to gain the benefits they need to reduce several types of pain.
